Impressive yet dull

It looks visually impressive but I find Quake style FPS fundementally uninspiring. I was hoping for something with more depth in game play. It would be nice to see a team have a crack at something like Battlefield 1942. The game logic isn't such a huge stretch from a quake style shooter but is a lot more fun. We have enough quake style shooters. Really. We don't need another.

So far it seems there are no improvements from Nexuiz, except a bit of GFX. Which is starkly disappointing. Currently best FLOSS FPS might be Red Eclipse, mostly due a it having a less standard weapon loadout. Now.... if Xonotic added a actual game editor, it might turn interisting what sort of games there might be. Or to but it bluntly: Xonotic going for the "best 3PS meele game" would have been the best ever considering how large the devteam is.
